"Young Turks"
I'd agree that despite the drum machine, "Young Turks" is a strong song -- probably his best tune from the early 1980s. It comes from the lp Tonight I'm Yours which is quite listenable. Stewart did stumble throughout much of the 1980s, but resurfaced in 1989 with the great single "Downtown Train."
